After Kylian Mbappe, Ex-Chelsea Striker Rejects Real Madrid, Per Reports

Real Madrid is a force in the soccer world that cannot be denied. The club is a dream destination for any big player to play at. It is usually known for signing big players but was unsuccessful in acquiring Kylian Mbappe. It seems like the club has players who reject it too. A former Chelsea player reportedly did not want to speak about Real Madrid when asked about his move there.

One of the most successful clubs in the world has been searching for their main attacker this season. The club has not been able to maintain its position at the top of the league. As it is desperate to make a mark, Real Madrid’s rumored aim for the player has been rejected for the time being.

Real Madrid unexpectedly sidelined by German striker

You don’t often see Los Blancos being refused by players. But with its own reasons and the uniqueness of the player, the Spanish capital was not an option for German international Timo Werner. Reportedly, the player has rejected a move to Real Madrid with a view to fighting for his place at RB Leipzig, as per BILD.

That’s some character shown by the player. But recently, his position at his current club has been in serious jeopardy. Scoring only two goals this season and playing for 370 minutes, RB Leipzig is unsure of how to handle the player’s situation. However, the media speculation of him moving to Real Madrid was denied, as he doesn’t want to leave the club within just six months of the season.

Considering his performance last season for Leipzig, it was not that bad, as he managed to score 16 goals and win the German Cup. But the club clearly expects more from its highest scorer of all time. On the other hand, what’s been going on with the Kylian Mbappe-Madrid situation? Let’s dive deeper.

Real Madrid’s unsuccessful attempts for Kylian Mbappe

Real Madrid was hopeful of signing Kylian Mbappe last year. But the star decided to continue at PSG for two more years, keeping the 14-time European Champions waiting. This year, after another attempt, Madrid had to back off, considering the $272 million release clause and perseverance to keep the 24-year-old.
